Woof — it’s been a long week.
If you feel like you’ve been working like a dog — or like the cat-astrophic news cycle is making you want to claw up your furniture — let us offer you the internet equivalent of a big pile of catnip: hilarious tweets about cats and dogs.
We shih tzu not.
Each week at HuffPost, we scour Twitter to find the funniest posts about our favourite furballs being complete goofballs. And, yes, they are sure to make you howl.
So shoo your kitty off your keyboard and enjoy some very good tweets. And if you want some more, no need to beg. Check out last week’s batch right here.
This morning I saw my neighbour talking to her dog. You could see that she thought the dog understood her. I went back inside and told my cat what I'd seen. We laughed and laughed.

I built my dog a selfie booth so she can take photos of herself by pushing a pedal with her paw pic.twitter.com/lpFTVZFlId

Okay, I’m getting REALLY sick of people accusing me of being crazy for talking to my dogs...

Sorry, I wasn’t ignoring your text, my dog was barking in her sleep so I had to drop everything to gently wake her up & keep whispering, “it’s okay, it was just a dream” until she fell back asleep

I put Benjamin on the balcony to greet people. Soba thought someone snuck onto our balcony and let out a deep growl I never heard before. I gave her treats for being a good guard dog. pic.twitter.com/W7J7pHLij8

Dog on the other side of the fence is barking and I just heard my neighbor say in a deflated and almost exasperated voice, “I’m right here. You don’t have to yell at me. Especially after the day I just had.”

A very fun and hilarious thing I like to do is go up to people with dogs in public and ask, in a very earnest and sincere way, if their dog is a breed that it TOTALLY isn’t.

Me: oh my god, is he an American bulldog?

I just watched my cat walk upstairs and then a minute later come back inside from the yard through the downstairs cat flap which is physically impossible and now she is curled up on the couch like it was all a figment of my imagination

My dog always makes a point to come burp in my face after he eats, and I’ve decided it’s his way of thanking me for the lovely meal.

Very very old cats don't get enough love on the Internet. It's all kittens this, kittens that, but there is LITERALLY nothing cuter than an incredibly old and stinky kitter wobbling over to you and purring so hard that they drool. pic.twitter.com/77IRDYeag0

When someone’s walking their dog and we pass by each other and the dog comes over to me and sniffing around, the owner’s always like “OMG I’m so sorry” and I’m like “Why are you apologizing for the highlight of my day so far.”
